Re: Find U dot V

The dot vector http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/ve...t-product.html
This is the geometric dot vector because the definition has cos theta in it:
This is the algebraic dot vector, Let vector a=(x,y,z) b = (m,n,o) :
Also you should note that the dot vector of any two vectors produces a SCALAR.

So provided the information and equation, can you solve the problem you have?

It is NOT the dot vector. It is either called the DOT PRODUCT or the SCALAR PRODUCT. The result is a scalar, not a vector, and the vector product is different. Please use the correct terminology to avoid confusing the OP.
